Jan Johannessen, who participated in the Workshop Story on Johnnie Footman, had this to say about his experience at the MediaStorm Multimedia Workshop:

To spend a week with the best people within the industry of multimedia production, the staff and teachers at MediaStorm, has been my best workshop-experience ever.

From the pure journalistic storytelling to the technical aspects of producing a complex multimedia production, I felt I developed a concrete platform to work and improve my multimedia storytelling on my own.

Not only were the people at MediaStorm brilliant but also the fellow students gave me a fantastic week. Learning new ways to gather journalistic material also gave me new inspiration within the still photography field – and one thing is for sure: There is nothing comparable to this workshop.
